Sweet Baby V.... 6 days old.... Jupiter Newborn Photographer

I really enjoyed meeting sweet Mr. V last week for his newborn portraits!  He was such a cutie & such a GREAT sleeper for me!!!  We enjoyed posing him & getting creative with these adorable basketball booties that his dad brought out!  He's ready to get his game on! :)  Here are a few of my favs.... :)

Handsome Mr. A.... 5 days old... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to assist my friend Tristine with T Davis Images in photographing the adorable Mr. A, who is the son of a local photographer friend of ours - Rachel from Moments & Milestones Photography.  We had such a blast playing with sweet baby A  My favorite set-up was of course the set up with Rachel's vintage cameras.  We had all seen a few similar poses on pintrest with babies with the vintage cameras, so that inspired us to give it our own spin!  I love what we created!  What makes it even more perfect is that when Rachel pulled out her cameras, she said "You know, I love this Brownie camera..... but I hate that it is missing it's bulb".... and low & behold.... who randomly has a bulb for a vintage brownie camera in her purse..... Yep.... this girl!  Total randomness... fate.... but it helped make the PERFECT image.  If I ever have another baby, I definitely want a similar pose! :)  Here are a few of my favorite's from A's session....

8 day old Miss K.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

Recently, I had the pleasure of traveling back up to Tallahassee, FL to visit some old college friends!  It was great returning to my old stompin' grounds... but it was even better getting to meet & snuggle with the adorable 8 day old Miss K, who is the daughter of some friends of ours up in Tallahassee.  I love, love, loved this session!  I enjoyed working with my friend Kate from Bellflower Photography in Tallahassee while we captured sweet Miss K in some beautiful settings!  (wish we had wildflowers down here in South Florida!).  Here are a few of my favorites from K's session....

Here she is with her adorable big sister:

 

Sweet baby H... 10 days old.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

It was my pleasure meeting adorable 10 day old Mr. H a few weeks ago to capture his newborn portraits.  I co-shot this session with my friend Tristine from T Davis Images.  We had a great time working together & captured such sweet images of this handsome little fellow! Here are a few of my favorites from the session....

 

5 day old Mr. M... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

One of the greatest joys of my job is getting to watch families grow & change.  I love when clients choose me again and again to continue to document their families' growth.  One of these families is the fabulous W family.... I first met them almost 2 years ago for X's newborn photos.... and then got to see them several times over the past two years.... here, and here, and here.... and earlier this week I was so excited to see them again to help welcome the newest member of the family... baby M.  Sweet Baby M was the perfect newborn model for me!  He slept the entire time & pretty much let me and my friend Tristine (from T Davis Images) pose him however we wanted.  I also LOVED capturing some shots of M with his adorable big brother! 

Here are a few of my favorites so far..... enjoy this little sneak peek! :)

Kristi Mangan Photography + BabyRAW + adorable 10 day old twins = FUN!!!

Last week I had the awesome opportunity to co-shoot a newborn twin session with the super-talented ladies of the BabyRAW team.  Since I am a "studio" newborn shooter typically, Brooke & Keila were nice enough to induldge me with being able to start off the session with some natural light studio shots of these adorable baby boys!  I loved working alongside Keila when were were posing these little guys.... they were so sweet & we were able to keep them pretty happy while we posed them.  Although I usually shoot with studio lighting, I enjoyed the challenge of natural light and I loved the beautiful shadows it created for these studio-style shots! 

After some fun indoors.... I ventured into the great outdoors with the nature girls.  It was so neat to see how these two (plus Robyn) worked their magic with their amazing natural out-door shots.  Brooke is incredible at "seeing" & finding the perfect spots.... Keila is amazing at posing the babies just right.... and Robyn is so helpful in doing whatever is necessary to help get the perfect shot!  I loved working alongside these talented women!    Here are some of the outdoor images we captured....

And in true Baby-RAW fashion.... a blog post isn't complete without some fun behind-the-scenes shots.  I just love how Brooke & Keila always post amazing behind-the-scenes images from their sessions... so I was inspired to capture some behind-the-scenes fun at this session!!!

And one Keila snapped of me "in studio" with the babies...

Sweet 10 day old Baby S.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer...

I absolutely LOVED working with the adorable Miss Scarlett.  She was such a great little sleeper for me & let me & my friend, Tammy Marie Photography, pose her however we wanted to!  Miss Scarlett's parents were so much fun too!  I loved that they brought fun things like a guitar & custom-made wood box to the session so we could incorporate them into the photos! 

 

Here are a few of my favorites of this little sweetie... :)

 

Handsome Mr. R... 1 month old.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

Totally LOVED meeting sweet 1 month old Mr. R last week for his newborn portraits!  He surprised everyone by showing up 2 months early... so after a few weeks in the NICU, he was ready for his close-up!  He is such a cutie & was such a good little sleeper for me!!!  THANKS so much to the S family for choosing me to capture this special time!  Enjoy this little sneak peek! :)

 

The Princess and the Pea.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

It was so much fun working with the R family again to welcome their newest little one... Princess E.  I photographed her big brother's newborn portraits 2 years ago, so it was great seeing C again & how big he has gotten!  Miss E was just a dream baby & so easy to photograph!  I loved working with her!  Here are a few of my favorites from her session!!!

 

Here she is with her proud big brother!!

Sweet Miss H... 13 days.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

It was so nice meeting sweet Miss H this morning for some newborn portraits!  She was such a cute little peanut for me!  I was so excited to finally use my new periwinkle blanket for some shots & I just LOVE the pop of color it gives these images!  Here are a few sneak peeks from her session!!
